As you know the oils and fats of vegetable or mineral is part of any moisturizer or moisturizer for the skin. Some oils have ingredients that help nourish while others help seal its natural moisture to prevent drying.
The fats used in skin care may be divided into three groups: vegetable, animal and mineral. Let's look at some 




Animal fats
include animal fats are most commonly used lanolin and butter. The butter is rarely used in cosmetics in India but widely used by applying directly to the skin. 

Fats Minerals

Here are petrolatum and mineral oil. These fats have the advantage of not cause allergies or irritation, but can clog the pores so that people prone to acne should not use. The oil is similar to petroleum jelly and is used in normal products for infants . It is recommended for dry and rough areas on the body. Many face creams contain it because it is very cheap. 

Vegetable fats:

The oils may be mixed between themselves to obtain different properties. They can put vitamin E or wheat germ oil to put more nutrients, better consistency and long term application because the oils are arrancian.

Yes and no. The problem with the oils is that they are easily absorbed and for this reason we prefer to use the creams. If oils are enriched by blending with other oils and essential oils can replace the creams but most people prefer these latter.
